Hard-Shell^® 96-Well Skirted PCR Plates, Low-Profile
Hard-Shell 96-well skirted PCR plates are specifically designed to withstand the stresses of thermal cycling and robotic handling. The two-component design provides superior stability and flatness.

Hard-Shell^® 96-Well Semi-Skirted PCR Plates, High-Profile
Hard-Shell 96-well semi-skirted PCR plates are specifically designed to withstand the stresses of thermal cycling and robotic handling. The two-component design provides superior stability and flatness.

Multiplate 96-Well Unskirted PCR Plates, Low-Profile
The polypropylene construction of Multiplate PCR plates confers very low protein binding and excellent retention of sample volume. When less than a full plate is needed, these plates can be easily cut.

Multiplate 96-Well Unskirted PCR Plates, Full-Height
The versatile unskirted design with full-height (20.70 mm) wells makes these Multiplate PCR plates ideal for laboratories using Bio-Rad or other instruments.

iQ 96-Well Real-Time PCR Plates, Full-Height
iQ 96-well PCR plates are semi-skirted plates optimized for iCycler iQ, iQ5, and MyiQ real-time PCR detection systems. The plates are recommended for PCR volumes of 5–125 µl (330 µl maximum).

Microseal 96-Well Semi-Skirted PCR Plates, Full-Height
These plates are compatible with instruments requiring full-height PCR plates, such as Applied Biosystems DNA sequencers, thermal cyclers (except fast cyclers), and real-time PCR systems.

Microseal 96-Well Skirted PCR Plates, Low-Profile
Microseal 96-well skirted PCR plates feature low-binding polypropylene construction and a skirted design suitable for high-throughput microplate handling. Recommended for PCR sample volumes of 5–125 µl.

Concord 96-Well Polycarbonate PCR Plates, Low-Profile
Concord 96-well PCR plates have been used in PCR and other thermal-cycling applications for many years. Thin-wall polycarbonate construction allows excellent heat transfer. For PCR volumes of 20–150 µl.
